Hi! My name is Sammy and I'm a 22 year-old biology student. My main fandoms are The 100, Daredevil and Sense8, but I also post some Orphan Black, BtVS, Star Trek, LotR/The Hobbit, and The Walking Dead. Currently obsessed with Star Wars.

The Texas State Aquarium has taught their crow to play connect four and I am DELIGHTED.

[ajax-b1ue]

Uhhhhhh… wow. Not every day you see your co-workers making the rounds on tumblr. 

o___o

[thatdisasterauthor]

To be fair, birds playing games is exactly the sort of nonsense tumblr loves.

AND THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WONDERFUL LADY’S NAME.

do you want to see a movie where you have no idea what is going on for the first forty-five minutes? jupiter ascending is the film for you! other highlights include:

a ten minute long spaceship fight with no context or purpose, which destroys a city. “no one will remember” channing tatum growls as they leave the city, as if youtube does not exist

“here’s a latke for you, bitch”

someone using a menstrual pad as a bandage by slapping the sticky part onto the wound, leaving the actual blood-absorbing part just kind of…waving around

actors chewing the scenery so hard i’m surprised beautifully over-constructed bits of space metal aren’t just falling out of their mouths

a man trying to shoot thousands of bees in the middle of a cornfield

a gun that makes dog noises. it barks. the gun barks. 

oedipus complexes so beautifully twisted and terrible that you will spend half the movie mouthing “oh my god” to yourself

related to that, the climactic line of the movie is “i’m not your damn mother,” so take that as you will

a breathtakingly gorgeous and complex universe used as a background for a romance between woman and a man. granted, the man is a wolf angel. but still.

I CREATE LIVES……………….

[whispers] and destroy them

[sharkodactyl]

no i’m sorry i have to keep going

“bees can sense royalty”

mila kunis having the powerful realization partway through that she is a furry, an epiphany that changes her life

“i love dogs” she whispers, eyes wide

SPACE BUREAUCRACY. A MONTAGE THAT IS JUST SPACE BUREAUCRACY. THEY FILL OUT SPACE FORMS. IN SPACE.

“bees can sense royalty”

channing tatum, shirtless in the void of space

a room FILLED WITH CANDLES

soylent green nectar…….is…………….peeeeoplllle

“bees can sense royalty”

sean bean’s apparent daughter, who shows up onscreen for a minute and a half, leaves to get supplies for dinner, and never comes back

yeah sean bean is in this too i didn’t believe it either

“bees can sense royalty”

a space wedding. it’s just like an earth wedding. BUT IN SPACE

mila kunis’ character’s name is jupiter

yes i am dead serious about this

she spends most of the movie falling

they really should have called it “jupiter descending” because that’s all she does

  “bees can sense royalty”

[velocigrey-deactivated20160825]

All that repetition of how bees can sense royalty, and you leave out the fact that the bees were an alarm system set up by Sean Bean, who is part bee.

[boogerwookiesugarcookie]

Did you seriously leave out Channing Tatum’s flying rollerskates?

[sevenpoints]

[tricksterity-deactivated2017112]

ok but you left out the fact that when sean bean’s part bee character swears he says “beeswax!” in the same tone someone would say “fuck!”

[spacerollerblades]

[insomniac-arrest]

what is it about fungi that’s so mythical and freaky and set in humanities heads as “fable and Other Folk” fodder

the lore

the vibes

the spooky feeling in the Ghosts and Aliens Section of my brain that goes off

like, look at this and tell me that magic isn’t real and doesn’t want to strip us bare and use our souls as bartering chips in cosmic games of poker

[insomniac-arrest]

mushrooms are an ancient force of growth and decay, life and rot, collapse and creation; they have been here long before us and will remain long after we’re gone- devouring that which kills us and creating that which forgets us.

it is best you tread carefully.

[hyperactivehedgehog]

I’m studying biotech and every time someone brings up mushrooms our current professor will look either extremely exited or pained and go “listen.. mushrooms are neither plants nor animals nor something in between. They elude all attempts to categorize them. We do not know what they are. Some are immortal. Some produce live saving substances. Some are so closely related to humans that eating them may cause an allergic reaction against your own body. I cannot teach you about the mushrooms”

[frayedcobweb]

Oh to be a biotech professor and wax lyrical about the eldritch immortal mushroom.

[bonediggercharleston]

the largest living being is a giant network of mushroom hyphae somewhere deep in Oregon’s blue mountains, It is thousands of years old, It covers 2384 acres, weighs 35 MILLION KGs (a kg is like 2 pounds) and thrives on sucking the life out of trees. we call it and it’s cousins honey mushroom.

Mushrooms were the first beings to truly conquer land and used to grow 8m up into the air. After the great dying 250 million years ago,mushroom forests covered the earth once more.

Mushrooms developed one of the most potent toxins in the world that kills most oranisms it comes into contact with, so that they do not have to compete with them. You know it as penicillin.

The nitrogen cycle which keeps all life outside of the ocean alive is unthinkable without the mushrooms growing in the roots of legumes.

There isn’t a being as eldritch and superlative yet silly and frivolous as a mushroom.

[kedreeva]

also I mean, look at this one

like okay I guess that’s a thing

and no one’s even mentioned their 36,000+ sexes yet

[jenniferrpovey]

There are fungi in Chernobyl that have developed the ability to use gamma radiation as an energy source. They literally use melanin to synthesize energy from gamma radiation.

(These fungi are being studied as a potential source for anti-radiation drugs or for engineering substances that block radiation. This might be useful for space travel, better shielding of nuclear reactors, to reduce the impact of radiation therapy on cancer patients, etc).

Because FUNGI, people.

Watch Vagrant Queen, new series March 27 on SYFY.

Adriyan Rae (Light as a Feather), who takes up the role of Elida, a Star-Lord-esque outlaw with royal blood, who’s on the run from the galactic government. Oh, and if you think her highness is above throwing out a John McClane quip or two, you’re dead wrong! In fact, you don’t wanna get on her bad side, or you may find yourself face to face with Elida’s boot or blasters.

The show is based on the comic book of the same name by writer Magdalene Visaggio and artist Jason Smith. Vault is continuing Elida’s story with more comic book installments this fall.
